We elucidated factors that affect decisions made by university students for enrollment in a volunteer fire corps (VFC) for a university campus. Thirty-four of the 197 questionnaire-target students desired enrollment in the VFC. According to the results of multiple logistic regression analysis, whether the student desired enrollment in the VFC or not was explained by the following four factors: likelihood of achievement of both VFC activities and schoolwork, with or without family members involved in a disaster, impact of VFC activities on carrier options, and with or without experience of volunteer activities. Taking appropriate actions with regard to these four factors would lead to an increase in the number of students who desire enrollment in a VFC.
